Improving performance and bulk material flow in chemical plant applications
After 20 years of reliable performance, our customer needed a replacement for a lining that was beginning to show its age. The existing liner in their raised high storage bunker had begun to allow bulk materials to migrate behind the liner, compromising the steel base of the system and threatening costly plant failure.
Onze oplossing was een nieuw bekledingssysteem gemaakt van geavanceerd thermoplast, in het bijzonder onze TIVAR® 88 UHMW-PE voeringmateriaal.
Niet alleen maakte dit hoogwaardige materiaal een efficiënte bulkstroom mogelijk, het verbeterde ontwerp beschermde ook de stalen basis en verminderde het risico op defecten.
Industrie: Bekledingen, Chemische installatietechniek
Oplossing: A self-contained lining system
Producten: TIVAR® 88 UHMW-PE
Resultaten: A more reliable lining system that promotes efficient material flow
Our customer operates the chemical industry, developing and manufacturing titanium dioxide pigments and performance additives. Via a partnership with a plant engineering and tank construction conpany, the customer had been happily using lining materials supplied by MCG in their storage bunker for over 20 years.
During operation of their plant, specifically during material flow, the customer noticed that the 20-year-old lining was no longer effective in preventing material back migration. Pigments had started migrating behind the liner, exposing the steel base of the storage bunker to chemical attack and compromising the stability of the entire container.

After a detailed analysis of the challenge and application, we made recommendations for both material selection and, importantly, alternative design considerations.
Using our TIVAR® 88 UHMW-PE lining material, we proposed a self-contained lining system that included a leading-edge protector as an additional precaution against bulk material making its way behind the lining.
By preventing back migration, this new and improved design protects the steel base of the raised storage bunker, ensuring safe and reliable performance for many more years to come.

The replacement we developed for the storage bunker liner didn’t simply fix the immediate issue posed by the worn-out liner — it was also an upgrade both in terms of material performance and component design.
The unique proprietary advantages of TIVAR® 88 UHMW-PE have made it the material of choice for the lining of storage and transport containers, hoppers, chutes, tubes, bunkers, conveyors, vibratory pans, and stand pipes.

A new lining solution with minimal assembly required
Onze klant had te maken met onbetaalbaar hoge installatiekosten voor silobekledingen. We ontwikkelden een nieuw type voering dat werd geassembleerd via in elkaar grijpende segmenten en vooraf aangebrachte bevestigingselementen, waardoor de klant deze uitdaging kon overwinnen en concurrerend kon blijven.


Van deskundig ontwerp tot kant-en-klare installaties, wij zorgen voor een veiligere, snellere, eenvoudigere en efficiëntere behandeling van bulkgoederen met ons assortiment thermoplastische bekledingsmaterialen. Wij ontwikkelen volledig ontworpen bekledingsoplossingen die waarde toevoegen aan uw bedrijf en bouwen duurzame samenwerkingsverbanden op.
